Overall our experience was good the first Truck we looked at had way to many issues with it the second truck was perfect
2000 Mazda B3000 review
2000 B3000 5sp manual. 240k+ miles and counting. Pros: descent small truck that is capable of being a productive work truck when combined with a trailer for hauling. Lower gears have plenty of power for towing. Very inexpensive to own and operate over the long term due to excellent reliability. It’s easy to work on for common problems such as alternator, water pump, etcetera. In 17 years, the most I’ve had to do is rebuild the front suspension - new tie rod ends, sway bars, ball joints, etcetera, replace an alternator, water pump, and a few other minor issues. I use this vehicle nowadays to pull a lawn mower trailer with a riding mower and gear, and for basic commuting in place of my F150. Cons: cheaply made interior - mostly the seats. The rest is basic, but functional. Leaks oil. Rear main seal, probably. Annoying but tolerable, as long as it has enough oil to run right. Higher gears have no torque. It feels like you have to have your foot way deep in the gas pedal to get it to keep highway speed and accelerate above 70. It’s rated for around 148 to 150 horse power, which is lacking, to say the least. Biggest con: HORRIBLE gas mileage for such a small truck. It gets around 15 mpg in town on a good day, and around 21 on the highway. This is just not right. I owned a full size Ford truck, 1990 model, with a 5.0 liter V8 that got about the same mpg. Ford and Mazda need to come fix this problem. This truck should be designed to get in excess of 200 hp and 30 mpg from the 3.0L engine it has. It SHOULD NOT be burning the excess fuel in the catalytic converter. Overall impression: I absolutely do recommend this vehicle for its utility and reliability. I paid about $6000 for this vehicle when it was 5 years old with around 60k miles, and I’ve definitely gotten my money’s worth considering I’ve probably spent less than $2k in maintenance in 17 years, including tires and batteries. I’m just really aggravated at auto manufacturers because they have no standard for fuel efficiency and performance, especially in the small truck line of vehicles.
